Welcome to the newest way to train your dog! As we navigate this new COVID-19 time in our world, we are adapting and changing the way we work, interact and learn and this includes how we train our dogs.

At AnimalSense, we understand the importance of training our puppies and dogs to become well-mannered members of our families and that is something we encourage everyone to continue to do even during this uncertain time. While virtual training may not totally replace the experience of group classes or one on one training with our professional trainers, it does help you lay the foundation for those core behaviors every dogs’ needs.

Motivation~Consistency~Repetition

Whether you’ve recently adopted a new dog or just want to teach your old dog some new tricks, it’s never too late for training. Training your dog requires a thoughtful combination of motivation, consistency and repetition. Motivate your pups with things they want such as food, toys, play and/or praise. Then, be consistent – the rules should apply everywhere and with everyone. Lastly, repetition is key. Just as we practice for skills we want to improve; dogs have to be successful over and over to get better at what we want them to do.
